In it, WTMA-AM North Charleston reports that:

In his weekly address, President Obama discusses the bipartisan immigration legislation being debated in the Senate, and calls for Congress to pass a bill that would fix the current "broken" immigration system as the Senate gets ready to vote on a plan next week.

I have an idea... Let's deport Obama to Kenya,banning him from setting foot on our soil,give illegals a chance at proving worthy of a path to whatever the hey they're screaming and crying about,but strip them of ALL social welfare for their anchors and use E-verification.Americans have first shot at jobs,period!

The existing laws are outdated and that's why they need to be changed to meet the needs of our time. Of course the reform needs to be followed by enforcement.

out dated or not they are laws.laws that are not being enforced.you can updated them or change them but they will still not be enforced.until we get a president that cares about this country.these ppl will still come here if they have to crawl through sewers.no reform.just follow the rules

In case you didn't know under Obama the number of illegals dropped as more people were deported compared to the ones who crossed the border illegally. Plus during the same period of time the border has become more secure ( there is room for better of course ) than ever before.

total bullshit.

the figures dropped because he put out a mandate to the border patrol to not arrest any more illegals.

The biggest problem in the US today is that most people either don't know their history, forget it or are trying to live in denial. America was created by immigrants; people who sought to create opportunities and in the process improve their lives. So when we here a fraction of some claiming this Country, we wonder. Lets keep focus of the issues and try not to be insanely emotional. What's this "we"- "they" madness. Everything in life changes to meet the needs, demands and challenges of the times. Read history correctly and you will understand this, until then lets all deal with the reality in our faces.

I agree with you to a certain degree.

but there is a difference between "immigration" and "invasion". do you know the difference?

one is hostile and the other is friendly.

what is happening this time around is hostile. we in the usa are dealing with foreigners who believe they have rights in the usa.
